I think you are reading too much into that IMO. The entire episode was everyone thinking actual pole vaulting. She never told Ted at any point her situation. Hes addressing his kids and they would know if Robin had kids or not. He didnt say "as you know robin never became a pole vaulter" he says she didnt do one random thing but did do all this other (including some random) stuff.
That was future Ted saying that line. So obviously he knows what she meant by pole vaulter because he knows she doesnt have kids.
Its clear as day.

In Mother‘s grand tradition of awe-inspiring metaphors (ie: sandwich=joint), Robin simply told her friends she was upset because she “could never be a pole vaulter.” And though she was sad, we, as viewers, held on to the fact that she would eventually have children. After all, we saw her talking to them. But then, the rug was pulled out from under us and onto our faces we fell: The end of the episode revealed Robin was only imagining her future children — and that she never had any

Yes but his kids would know that too. Why would he tell his kids what they already know? Its not like theyd need the information that a person theyve known all their lives didnt have kids.

I dont think the kids mean anything because she was imagining what it would be like if her and barney had kids of their own.
